It’s become part of
the restaurant table setting: knife, fork, napkin and cell phone. Distracted
dining is the new norm with customers constantly texting friends, tweeting an
Instagram photo of the meal they’re about to chow down or emailing the boss. For
many smart-phone users, it’s hard just to focus on the meal and company at
hand.
Social media has
become the focus of not only our private lives, but our careers as well.
Websites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn have pretty much become are flection of our daily lives. Employers have noticed this
too. Social media has become the number 1 source of potential employees and talents for employers and recruiting
companies to hire. It is cheap, fast, convenient and one of the best ways to judge a person’s
character. It has forever changed the way the world communicates. Yet, many
people spend a lot of time tweeting, linking, and posting statues updates.
However, we can’t
ignore the benefits from social media. Yet, as much as it can waste time, it
can also be a great productivity booster. Although social media can be a large
time-waster, are you using social media for productivity or procrastination?
In a world
where ideas, communication, and speed are increasingly valuable, social media
excels. Granted, social media isn’t going to write that report for you, or analyze
that spreadsheet. However, there are many social media help you get work done,
develop new ideas, or just get feedback. I often see many of my friends ask
questions and take a survey on social media, it is an effective way, isn’t it?
Social
media allows individuals greater power than ever to communicate with a large
audience. It used to be you had to go through a publisher or big media company.
Authors, speakers, experts, can now reach their audience directly, immediately,
and in most cases for free.
We all know how social media strong and
effective, but we still have to use those right. Do not let them affect normal
life. Sometimes, leave your phones for a while, for health, and for others, chat with the person who is sitting next to you. Find more beauties out of your phone. Don't forgetting the person around you when you crazy in your phone. All in all, take good use of smartphone.
